Conway Scenic Railroad
The Conway Scenic Railroad 〔Railinc, (Search MARKs ), accessed July 2009〕 is a heritage railway in North Conway, New Hampshire, United States. The railroad operates over two historic railway routes: a line from North Conway to Conway that was formerly part of the Conway Branch of the Boston and Maine Railroad, and a line from North Conway through Crawford Notch to Fabyan that was once part of the Mountain Division of the Maine Central Railroad. The Conway line is owned by Conway Scenic, and the Mountain Division is owned by the State of New Hampshire. Russ Seybold is owner and president of the Conway Scenic.
The railroad's main terminal is located in historic downtown North Conway in the Mount Washington valley. The station complex has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1979.〔(Carroll County Listings on the National Register of Historic Places (District - #79003792) )〕
== Operations ==
The railroad operates excursions of varying duration under two banners - the "Valley Train" which runs either south to Conway (55-minute round trip) or north to Bartlett (1¾-hour round trip), and the "Notch Train" covering the line through Crawford Notch. The Valley Train excursions include the dining car ''Chocorua'', the 1898 open-deck Pullman observation car ''Gertrude Emma'', an open-air car, and several restored heavyweight coaches, some dating back to the 1920s. The Notch Train service is typically a 5-hour round trip to Crawford Depot (located at the height of land in Crawford Notch), but is extended to 5½ hours during the fall foliage season when the train travels all the way to Fabyan Station, located near Bretton Woods in the town of Carroll. The Notch Train includes an open-air car (''Silver Cascade''), a vista dome car (''Dorthea Mae''), a first-class car (''Carroll P. Reed''), and commuter coaches retired from the Montreal commuter pool. In 2010,〔CSR from Maine Rail Group from off rail use from Norfolk & Western〕 a restored dining car built as N&W Powhatan Arrow 492 in 1950, and now named ''Hattie Evans'', was added to the train.〔http://conwayscenic.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.wheelreport0809〕 Annual special events at the railroad include Day out with Thomas, a railfan day on the first Saturday of September, ''Polar Express''-themed trips during December, and a "Steam in the Snow" photographer's special in early January sponsored by the Massachusetts Bay Railroad Enthusiasts from 2008 to 2015.〔(Massachusetts Bay Railroad Enthusiasts (Upcoming Excursions, Tours, and Special Events) )〕
